_______ is the Process of Converting the Energy of a Stimulus

Question

_______ is the process of converting the energy of a stimulus into electrical energy.
A) Polarization
B) Integration
C) Transduction
D) Sensory adaptation

Accepted Answer

Transduction is the process by which a stimulus is converted into electrical energy, which can be transmitted and processed by the nervous system. This occurs in sensory receptor cells, such as photoreceptor cells in the retina or hair cells in the inner ear, which convert physical stimuli like light or sound waves into electrical signals.
